Its heating chamber 15 is coupled to a magnetron 16 as a heat source via a waveguide 17 so that a heating load 18 is irradiated with microwave energy. The front opening of the heating chamber 15 is tightly fitted with a door means 2 which can be freely opened and closed with a handle 3.

  • FIG. 4 is a circuit diagram of the control circuit embodying this invention.
  • a main control section 19 comprises a stored program type controller, for example a 1-chip mycon. This mycon 19 controls the energization of the magnetron 16 through a relay driver which is a power supply control 20.
  • a time relay 27 is a relay which continuously closes the circuit during this energization.
  • a power relay 28 is a relay which closs the circuit intermittently during said energization and varies the average output of the magnetron 16, changing the high frequency output from one to another in 3 stages (high, intermediate and low).

  • A/D denotes the input terminal of an A/D converter and the resistance value at the volume 22 is read in as a voltage value.
  • heating data there are two methods of inputting heating data.
  • One of them is a method in which desired heating data are inputted by means of the power key 7 and timer volume 22, while the other is a method in which preset heating data (home menu) are read out from the non- volatile memory 24 by means of the memory key group 9.
  • the power key 7 is tapped a given number of times to select the desired high frequency output and, then, the volume 22 is turned to set the desired heating time.
  • the power key 7 can be tapped in a cyclic sequence of hiqh ⁇ intermediate + low + high ......
  • the "low” output can be selected by tapping the key twice- Then, the volume 22 is turned, whereupon the varying voltage is read by the input terminal A/D and, after decoding into the corresponding heating time, displayed on the display tube 23 so that the desired time may be selected.
  • the order of manipulation of the power key and the volume may be reversed and a construction that may deal with both of such arrangements can be easily implemented. This can be dealt with by the control program stored in the mycon 19.
  • heating data can be set by one touch, i.e. by tapping the desired key in the memory key group. These heating data are previously written into the nonvolatile memory 24 by means of the memory entry key 11.
  • the nonvolatile memory 24 may be a MNOS memory element commercially available on the market. In this embodiment, an equivalent of NM1218 (trade name) is employed.
  • the readout and writing of such nonvolatile memory 24 are controlled by a mode code signal and addresses data signals DA 3 through DA 0 from the mycon 19, whereby the desired addressing is effected.
  • the readout data are outputted to data output terminals DO- through DO 0 and inputted into input terminals I3 through I a of the mycon 19.
  • the nonvolatile memory 24 is equipped with a power on clear terminal [PCLA] similar to the initializing terminal [INIT] of the mycon 19.
  • the memory function is enabled by setting it at a "High” level at power on and at a “Low” level after the source voltage has satisfied the operating conditions.
  • the nonvolatile memory 24 is further provided with a chip enabling terminal [CE] for driving the memory. By keeping it set at a high level, all the actions of the memory 24 can be stopped. Thus, the memory 24 can be protected so that its contents will not be destroyed.
  • the reference numeral 32 indicates a memory protecting means for activating the PCLA and CE, which protects the memory 24 when the power source is turned on and off, respectively.
  • a transistor 33 becomes on when the power source is turned on and becomes off after charging a capacitor, whereby the memory 24 is reset.
  • a zener diode 34 becomes off and the transistor 33 is turned on to bring CE to a high level and thereby protect the memory 24.
  • the reference numeral 35 indicates an initializing circuit of the mycon 19, which resets the mycon when the power source is turned on.
  • a clock circuit 25 generates clock pulses which are used as the base for activating the timer means of the mycon 19.
  • the mycon 19 counts the clock pulses and performs a substraction of heating time.
  • Indicated at 36 is a buzzar circuit which informs the completion of heating, etc.
  • FIG. 5 shows an embodiment wherein an initializing circuit 35 of the mycon is utilized as a memory protecting means as well.
  • the initializing circuit 35 not only initializes the mycon 19 but also resets the PCLA of the memory 24 when the power source is turned on. When the power source is turned off, the CE is forced up to the H level to protect the contents of the memory 24.
  • An AND gate 37 switches the input to the input terminals I3 through I 0 of the mycon 19 to a keyboard 21 and the output terminals DO 3 through DO according to the R 12 output.
  • the input terminals I3 through I 0 are released for the keyboard 21 and the memory 24 is not able.
  • the R 12 output is constantly at a high level during the heating operation. Therefore, the memory 24 cannot be read or written while microwaves are generated. This means that even if the noise derived from the microwaves is carried by the address line or output line of the memory, the contents of the memory 24 is not destroyed.
  • Fig. 6 there is shown a flow chart showing the situation when the power source is turned on. The resetting of the INIT terminal of the mycon 19 is released, whereupon the mycon 19 starts operating. First, all the output ports are reset and, then, the RAM is cleared. This is the initialization of the mycon 19.
  • a 500 mS timer starts counting and all the operations are delayed till 500 mS is counted up.
  • circuit constants are selected so as to satisfy the relation of [mycon reset time] ⁇ memory PCLA reset timel.
  • the memory is nonvolatile, the written data is not retained permanently. Especially, when the memory is used in a fairly high temperature atmosphere, as it is the case in the mechanical compartment of a microwave oven, the memory level of data is gradually deteriorated and ultimately the written data are lost. Memory refreshing is performed to prevent occurence of this obliteration of data. That is to say, this operation is done to rewrite the existing data so as to restore the decreasing memory level to the initial level. Memory refreshing is performed by the following procedure. First, the address to be refreshed is read out from the memory. Then, the data at the corresponding address is read out and stored in the RAM of the mycon. This data is rewritten into the same address, and data refreshing is carried out.
  • the refresh address is updated to complete a memory refreshing.
  • only one address of the memory is updated when the power source is turned on. This is because refreshing requires a comparatively long time and if all the addresses be refreshed each time, the waiting time would be too long to ensure practical utility.
  • the refresh address data are also stored in a working address of the nonlatile memory and retained even after the power source is turned off.
  • Fig. 7 shows a main routine for display and key input introduction. If there is no key input for a predetermined time, memory refreshing is carried out as shown in Fig. 6.
  • the display is a dynamic glow where the grid is controlled by R 0 to R 4 as illustrated in Fig. 4, the initial value is set in the display grid pointer at the leading front of scan. For example, "5" is set. Then, the value at the display grid pointer is updated. Thus, the content of the pointer is decremented. And the grid display data shown by this pointer is outputted to 0 0 through 0 7 . This is connected to the anode of the display tube and then as the R n output is set at the grid, whereupon the given grid glows. Thereafter, with a certain, delay time, data in a certain row of key matrix swept by this R n output is taken in.
  • the key input thus taken in is checked to see if there was a key input. If there was a key input, an 8-hour timer is reset and to decode this key, a jump is made to a key decoding routine. If there was no key input, the 8-hour timer is checked and a jump is made to #C for display of the next grid. When illumination up to R 0 has been completed, a return to #B is made for initial setting again. And if a period of 8 hours has elapsed without no key input, it is judged that the power source has been kept on and, accordingly, a jump is made to #A (Fig. 6) for memory refreshing.
  • Fig. 8 shows a memory readout routine.
  • a memory read mode is established with R 8 through R 11 and R12 and the desired address data are preset. Then, the outputted memory data is taken in (lst) and saved in the RAM. Then, after a certain delay time, data at the very same address is re-read by the same procedure and taken in (2nd). And this data is checked against the first data saved in the RAM and if there is agreement, the readout is complete. If there is a discrepancy between the two data, it is judged that a trouble in readout has occurred due to some cause such as noise and the readout is repeated again.
  • the counter limits the number of such repetitions and prevents formation of an endless loop of the program when the memory is faulty. In this embodiment, the number of repetitions is 256 times.
  • this 256 counter is reset and, then, a logical collation of data is carried out.
  • This operation is done to see if the readout data is a logically possible data as heating data. More specifically, it is checked to see if the heating time data exceeds a maximum setting time, if either the power data or the heating time data is lacking, or if a value more than 6 is in digit 6 or a value over 10 is in digit 10.
  • the uncontrollable readout data can be eliminated by this logical collation. And only the data which have passed this logical collation are preset as heating data at the relevant address in the RAM.
  • FIG. 9 shows such a writing routine.
  • the data written is set in the RAM of the mycon.
  • a memory writing mode is established with Rg through R11 and R 12 so that the desired address data and the written data are inputted into the memory.
  • the data is reread.
  • the procedure for readout is the same as the routine shown in Fig. 8.
  • the data so read out is checked against the data set in the RAM. Thus, a check is made to see if the writing was successful or not. If the writing failed due to some error or other, up to 8 reattempts are made by the action of the counter. This small available number of attempts was selected in consideration of the fact that writing requires a longer time that does reading and the writing life of the memory is by far shorter than its reading life.
  • Fig. 10 shows an embodiment in which a memory map similar to the nonvolatile memory is provided in the RAM of the mycon in order to reduce the memory access time.
  • a memory map similar to the nonvolatile memory is provided in the RAM of the mycon in order to reduce the memory access time.
  • This RAM 38 Provided in this RAM 38 is an address space 39 corresponding to the nonvolatile memory 24 and exactly the same data is stored in both of them.
  • the mycon 19 generally makes an access to the home menu from this address space in the RAM. And when the power source is turned on or off, the heating data is recopied from the nonvolatile memory 24 by the refreshing procedure of Fig. 6. This results in a phenomenal reduction of access time and is also expected to exert a favorable influence on the life of the memory 24.
  • Fig. 11 shows a circuit diagram indicating the memory test being performed.
  • a switch 40 is a test switch for commanding the startup of the test program. This is disposed for example on the printed board and the user cannot touch it.
  • the mycon 19 sets and resets all the memory cells of the memory 24 to check for any faulty memory cell. More specifically, by utilizing the memory writing routine of Fig. 9 and the memory reading routine of Fig. 8, all the memory cells are set in the first place and then read out for checking.
  • the display tube 23 indicates the display data, the numeral in [Memory] digit showing the address and the numerals in the subsequent 4 digits representing the data from the 16-bit memory cell.
  • the mycon 19 resets all the memory cells. Now, the indication of [ ⁇ ] is sustained. If an error is detected, the test is stopped at this address and the data read out is displayed.
  • the memory self test program is very useful in the inspection before shipment and the market service. After the above checking, the memory returns to the blank (initial) condition.
  • this invention protects the data in the non- volatile memory from being destroyed when the power source is turned on an off and also provides a memory refreshing procedure for rewriting the contents of the memory in the absence of a key operation during a predetermined period. Therefore, the appliance can be made useful for an extended period of time and also resistant to aging. Furthermore, since the nonvolatile memory is subjected to checking and collation at the reading and writing, it is resistant to noise and faults so that improved data reliability and operability are ensured.
